FAMILY MOMENT
Family Church… I am SO PUMPED UP TODAY!!!
I feel like Arnold Schwarzenegger on bicep-day
Or like his cousins, remember these guys show pic of Hanz and Franz from SNL
Seriously, I am pumped up….. super excited because today we launch into a whole new sermon series!!!
PAUSE
If you are new, or newer to Family Church, I want to let you know that EVERY year we take the entire month of October and talk about God’s mission and how we are a part of that mission here at Family Church!
We try and highlight what we are doing in missions both locally and globally!
And we want you to get excited about missions and serving people!
PAUSE
And here’s the best part about THIS year…
And let me just say....Pastor Bob is extra excited about what I am about to say.....
For those of you who do not know who Pastor Bob is...he is our missions pastor....
….THIS year for the FIRST time....missions month is NOT just a month!
THIS year it is going to be two months!!!
This sermon series is going to take us all the way through November as well!
That’s right, we’re going on an 8-week journey together all about missions and how we ALL can get involved!!!
In fact, when you walked in today you were handed a flyer for you to put on your refrigerator, bathroom mirror, or anyplace where you will see it often.
Each day of the week is highlighted for you to pray specifically during these next two months for the ministries that we partner with both here at home and over there across the seas.
Anyone excited!!!!
PAUSE
This series was developed by Kevin Harney who preaches here from time to time....
And Kevin came out with a new book called Organic Disciples and asked us to be a pilot church to go through the material, which is pretty cool!
This whole series will be all about Growing in our love for God AND sharing our faith with others!
Over these next 2 months, we’ll highlight 7 markers of spiritual maturity
7 commitments of an Organic Disciple of Jesus let’s show you what those are.
Organic Disciples are Committed: 1. Bible Engagement 2. Passionate Prayer 3. Wholehearted Worship 4. Humble Service 5. Joyful Generosity 6.
Consistent Community 7. Organic Outreach
These 7 indicators, or markers of spiritual maturity, will guide our discussions in the coming weeks
LONG PAUSE
In the coming weeks here is what you are going to find out about what it means to be an “Organic Disciple” of Jesus.....
Write this down:
Organic Disciples are committed to grow in Jesus and go with Jesus.
Repeat
Notice the two operative words here: grow and go!
We are ALL called to GROW our faith in Jesus.
We are ALL called to GO share our faith with others as well.
PAUSE
You see it’s not enough to simply GO to church....
Or just reading your bible....
Or just singing church songs....
Or just attending youth group....
Or just going on a mission's trip....
A TRUE disciple, or REAL follower of Jesus…..
Will seek to grow in their faith and go share their faith with others.
This is precisely what Jesus taught in Matthew 28, let me show you....
And as you are getting there let me say how much we love the word of God here.

Matthew 28: 18-20 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”
Let’s be clear....
Right here Jesus is talking to His disciples and telling them how to make more disciples…
How to be Organic Disciples.
He’s saying an Organic Disciple grows in their faith AND shares their faith with others!
PAUSE
There are two “churchy” words here, that come to mind…
Discipleship and Evangelism.
Maybe you are here today, and you didn’t grow up going to church, or you are a first-time guest… we are so glad you are here…
So, let me try to explain what these two “churchy words” mean…
Write this down.....
Discipleship is the journey of becoming like Jesus, growing in spiritual maturity, and helping others do the same.
Repeat
Evangelism is the adventure of sharing the love of God and the message of salvation through Jesus Christ alone.
Repeat
Now, that’s a lot of verbiage... so, let me say it a different way and make it super simple....
Write this down
Discipleship is about becoming more like Jesus
Evangelism is about bringing people to Jesus
Repeat
Discipleship is growing in your personal relationship with Jesus…
Discipleship is about growing in your understanding of Who God is and how you live for him!
Evangelism is about going to others to know Jesus…
AKA sharing the message of salvation through Jesus....
PAUSE
And these two are not simply acquaintances or friends…
No, discipleship and evangelism are more like husband and wife!!
They are like two sides of the same coin.
The two are inseparable...
Some things just go together, like...
…Salt and Pepper
…Peas and carrots
…spaghetti and meatballs
Some matches were made in heaven, like...
...Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy
…Mickey and Minnie Mouse
…and for all you Nintendo fans, Mario and Princess Peach
